Thermomechanical Modeling of Material Flow and Weld Quality in the Friction Stir Welding of High-Density Polyethylene
A thermomechanical model of the friction stir welding (FSW) of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) was developed by incorporating a Coupled Eulerian–Lagrangian (CEL) approach. A Johnson Cook (JC) material model of HDPE was developed through experimentally generated strain-rate- and temperature-dependen...
